Disney’s Blizzard Beach

September 24, 2014June 20, 2016

We kicked off our first park visit on a bright sun-shiny day at Blizzard Beach!!   The theming here is just incredible, much like everything else Disney. Rumor has it that what was once a ski resort has melted into the watery wonderland of Blizzard Beach. Christmas music plays all day, hot chocolate is a… Read More

Mickey’s Backyard BBQ

September 23, 2014August 11, 2015

We gorged on the yummy buffet breakfast at the Hampton Inn and were lounging by the pool at Animal Kingdom Lodge by 10:30AM!! After such a relaxing afternoon, we spent our first night in Disney chowing down and kicking it up at Mickey’s Backyard BBQ!! We met up with bestie S and her family for… Read More

Disney Bound

September 22, 2014August 11, 2015

It’s been a fun week getting ready to go and I am so very excited that the big day has finally come!!! The trip is still a huge surprise for the littles and, while I came very close to spilling beans, I managed to keep my mouth shut. And today was just SO worth it!!… Read More

Messages from Mickey

September 20, 2014August 11, 2015

Some of our favorite magical memories from past trips are Messages from Mickey. We’ve saved a bundle of money on souvenirs as whenever we passed a store we just reminded the littles that Mickey would be picking out a treat especially for them each day! And the littles literally bound out of bed each morning… Read More

The Cutest Little Bows

September 19, 2014February 22, 2016

Is anyone else out there noticing that I seem to be developing a bow addiction. I suppose there are worse problems in the world. I used to spend my time before Disney trips dreaming up cute little outfits and treats for the littles. And while I still do the treat part, we already have a… Read More

Sister’s Snippets {Disneyland}

September 18, 2014July 20, 2017

If you know Sister, you know she is full of good ideas. Seriously! So while her own blog is long defunct, I’m trying to convince her to contribute here on a regular basis – think decorating, dining, dressing the littles, etc. Since I’m sharing all things Disney this week, I thought it would be fun… Read More

Walt Disney Quote {Free Printable}

September 17, 2014August 11, 2015

I cannot believe it took me this long to share the free printable quote that graces our family office.  Sorry, y’all! As you may recall, I wanted space in the room for an inspirational quote.  Something that could be easily changed out for both the seasons of the year and the seasons of our lives. … Read More

I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl, and opening this felt like discovering a treasure chest. Honestly, it radiated just as much happiness and joy at 50. ❤️

My friend Katie recently launched @itsyourstorygifts, creating reading gift sets centered around a surprise chapter book and absolutely stuffed with bookish goodies. She sent me one of her Signature Book Boxes to experience for myself, and as you can see… it just kept going.

Everything was prepared with so much care and thought. I immediately pictured the child who would absolutely light up opening one of these, whether it arrived for a birthday, to celebrate something special, during a hard season or simply to say, “I’m thinking of you.”

I’m sharing much more about Katie, her new business and what’s inside the box on the blog today.

And stay tuned. We have something fun coming later this week!

Mahjong, but make it cards. @playhootenanny gifte Mahjong, but make it cards.

@playhootenanny gifted me their Mahjong Playing Cards, and Honey and I took them along on our recent weekend away. They’re beautiful, easy to pack and such a fun way to play when traveling with an entire mahjong setup isn’t exactly practical.

We picked it up surprisingly quickly, and these have officially earned a spot in my travel bag.

I shared more on the blog today, including a link to the set on Amazon!

This trip was never really about New York. It was This trip was never really about New York.

It was about watching two incredible kids chase big dreams, cheering them on from the front row, and soaking up every minute together.

The city was amazing… but these memories mean even more. 🤍🗽

To JB and Cee: we couldn’t be more proud. Enjoy summer in the city!
